EU wholesale trade: analysis of the sector and value chains

Client/Funding Institution

European Commission, DG Growth

Abstract

The study examined the European wholesale sector from several perspectives. First of all an overview of size and the economic significance of the wholesale was gained. As a second step the wholesale was seen as an economic function that connects different sectors and countries to global value chains. And as a third level it was gone deeper into the wholesale sector with a case study about the subsector ‘Wholesale of mining, construction and construction engineering’ which was examined more precisely.
